Stuff I think would be cool for Twst to explore with Silverās character because I donāt think heās boring-Ā
I apologize for my stream of consciousness...
Silver is the only human in a fae family. Heās been told that his life is short since he was little & learned he was human. After 7 where Lilia is confirmed to live at least 200 more years w/ Malleus, how does he feel knowing how temporary he is in the lives of the people loves?
Silver feels immense guilt over Lilia taking care of him when he ādoesnāt have toā & was destroyed when he learned abt his origins. Does he feel like he needs to right the wrongs done & make up for the sins of his bio family? In book 8 he still doesnt seem the nicest to himself
Silver constantly brings up how much of a burden his sleep spell is. It is a blessing but now gives him trouble now which should define it as a curse. If itās leaving, how has his life & how people treat him changed? Is he still ridiculed for his condition?
Following up on that ^ would twst ever reframe Silver's sleep spell as less of a gag and more serious as Silver treats it? It has parallels to narcolepsy. How was the spell on him so long after waking up? If the ring kept the spell on him, what happens now that his ring is gone?
Silver struggles to properly express his emotions to anyone outside of Diasomnia. Is there a reason why it's hard for him to smile, and why is he shy about smiling in front of others? How has his different social skills affected him outside of his dorm vignette?
Silver is quick to self-sacrifice as seen in events & main story. With Lilia trying to teach him to survive no matter what, why is it so easy for him to throw his life away? Is he just selfless? How will this affect his life as a knight?
In book 7, he witnessed Lilia consider killing him as a baby, learned his bio family did horrible things, had a mental breakdown, essentially attempted suicide, hallucinated himself as Dawn getting attacked by Lilia, and witnessed his dad's death, how has he coped with this?
Silver is over 400 years old, spent more than he will ever live awake in ageless sleep, was forgotten about by the world, left to sleep forever or die alone in that castle, is so far removed from his original time and life, how does he cope with the existential dread of this?
Silver's bio family are originally from the Land of Dawning (Sage's island is part of this) his grandfather was cured of illness and still lived there. Is some of Silver's bio family still around, are they still royalty, did they know about him, does anyone even want him back?
Silver had 3 guardian fairies before Lilia, Malleus, and Sebek. Did they ever want to come back for Silver if they're still alive, ARE they still alive, would Silver be interested in reconnecting? They clearly gave him fairy gifts, did they leave him anything else?
Silver grew up isolated in the woods only ever talking to his family and animals. Lilia still expected him to 'return' to humans but he knows nothing about them outside of NRC. Would he ever want to feel more connected to humans or isolate himself in the woods again after NRC?
Many faes including Baur and probably Maleficia still hate humans. Mount Dread made him feel ill climbing it. The senate still exist. Is being Malleus's knight even safe for Silver? What if his origins get discovered by the wrong person?
If Silver's only desire to be a knight came from protecting and serving Malleus, Lilia & people in need, what does he do when that job puts him in danger. He already would save someone else instead of himself, would he ever consider another job outside of what he wanted as a kid?
How would Silver deal with potential vitriol directed at him by faes who do not want a short-lived human knight around their prince. Or fae that think he's fine because he's basically 'fae enough' based on how he's raised. Would he ever meet other humans in Briar Valley?
Is there possibly anyone out there, either day fae or night fae, that might've seen Dawn's face and recognized Silver as being the lost prince everyone was talking about after 7? If social media is yapping about a lost prince, do people want to know who he is?
Silver's hobbies were limited by his sleep spell and his guilt/duty to dedicating his life solely to other people (malleus & Lilia), is there something he has a passion for outside of training or is it all he has because of how he was raised/isolated?
After surviving 400 years and having parts of the sleep spell still stuck to him after 18 years, would something bad happen to him once it leaves? Is there any after effects to living so long? Are there other humans who were spelled to sleep for hundreds of years?
Exploring how he traverses dreams, can theoretically perform his magic forever so long as he stays asleep, can meet people he doesn't know through dreams, can cross into dreams from DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS too. Michael Mouse..
That's all I can think of for rn at my office desk! if you can think of something else interesting, please feel free to add!
